Flat-Front Pants
One of my all-time favorite pairs of slacks came from Ann Taylor. The pants were black wool with no waistband or pockets, and the zipper was in back. I had them in the ‘90s and I wore them to shreds. The reason I loved them was the front was flat--no thick waistband, pockets or zipper adding bulk to my stomach. Since turning 50, I've adopted two strategies to keep from looking like I'm three-months pregnant in pants. First, I do hateful ab exercises regularly to keep the flab at bay. And second, whenever possible, I buy pants that aren't too bulky in front. Yesterday, I discovered that Jones New York has a whole line of flat-front slacks. And they’re on sale right now. The Jones New York Flat-Front Slim Yoked Pant (Pattern) above is on sale for $86.99. Below are a couple of more JNY styles.

Right now, Talbots has some pant styles with side zippers and no front pockets. In the past decade, I have bought four pairs of side-zipper slacks from Talbots and have been very happy with them. Talbot pants seem to fit my shape well. The online site is having mega sales with lots of pants for under $50, some as low as $21. Click on the store name to take a look.
I thought I should also stop by the Ann Taylor website. The site has lots of pants on sale. Click on the store name to visit the site.
